First EB Clinic Of The Year

Wow, what a day. I’m tired!

You know that exhausted, fragile, feeling sorry for yourself feeling you get after you’ve had some procedure like a blood test or stitches out etc?

Yeah that….

Now add on to that getting up at 5.30am to be at the hospital at 7.30am, to have all my dressings removed by 8am for the Doctors to look at me naked and take photos checking for SCC’S (cancers) or if I need any biopsies, having a cannula put in when you have microscopic nano veins so they can take some more blood and then start a zinc infusion, then having an echocardiogram because my cough has come back and we were worried it was cardiomyopathy again (turns out its not YAY! But what is it?), then trying not to gag whilst taking out my old Ng Tube and having a new one inserted (Thankyou Lesley!), and finally seeing the Renal Dr and trying to work out a strategy/regime for all the drugs/dialysis fluids etc etc.

Got that? Yeah I’m tired….
Goodnight

    Hi Nikki, I read about you on the Sydney morning herald. I
    also read your blog. Your positive energy is fabulous. I can feel
    your Positive and happy attitude from your blog. Thanks for sharing
    so much of yourself, you are amazing. Btw: I just bought Versace
    bright crystals and it’s a nice perfume. My other favorite is blue
    illusion by Estée Lauder. Take care and I’ll keep following your
    blog. Gabriela

    You are so inspiring and amazing. You are so strong and so
    beautiful. It sounds like a busy schedule, but I hope all the best.
    I hope everything goes without a problem <3 You are
    beautiful and do not deserve any of this. :) Best of luck for the
    future, Sarah H.

  4. Sounds busy! And uncomfortable. Would love it if you could
    do a post explaining the medical jargon :)
